The real fail will be if that moron tries to sue the Transit Authority or the escalator manufacturer.

Win to the guy trying to help. Too many people would have just walked away. Not enough Boy Scouts around anymore I guess.

Funny, I never watched the whole thing. I saw it on the news this morning. They only showed the lady falling out of the chair.

Blue shirt and cargo shorts guy looks like he came down the stairs and was headed up the escalator like a boss until he realized this mess was going on.

How can people that dumb even get the chair to work? Let alone get to the place where the escalator is
